Thanks for the mmrs by fall out boy
Thanks for the mmrs by fall out boy is a song about a guy having a one night stand with a girl and thanking her for the memories. That pretty much sums up the whole song for you. This song is on their cd from under the cork tree. …
System of a Down The Self Titled Album
System of a Down is one of my most favorite bands. They’re a hard rock band and they usually dabble in heavy sounding music that more often than not has double or deep meaning behind the lyrics. In this review, I want to talk about their very first album, …
Needle and Thread - The Reign of Kindo
One genre of music that I feel is hugely underrated and underdeveloped is jazz/rock. It seems that rarely will I find a good jazz/rock combination band, despite the fact that the two styles of music compliment each other so well. The Reign of Kindo is a band that stands …
SandMan
SandMan is a really good rapper from MN. He is an underground rapper but has created a big following on the net and on the streets as well. He has a very fast flow and very good lyrics. He can also sing and harmonize on his songs as well. But …
Bloodflowers, 2000 Album by The Cure

Queen - It’s a Kind of Magic - Simple
It’s by Queen, so to that extent you think that it has to be a classic. It sounds good, Freddie leads it and it just sounds so passionate and inspired throughout.
Yet listen closely to the lyrics and this all sound pretty mad to me.
I can comfortably state that I …
Keyshia Cole CD
This is an AMAZING CD. All the songs on this cd you can definately relate to if you’ve been in a relationship that didnt work out. EVEN if your the reason it didnt work out. You can just put it on and let it go. My favorites are Heaven …
The Flaming Lips - Hear It Is (Album)
Hear It Is is the debut album released by The Flaming Lips. I’ll start this review off by just making clear that the sound present throughout this record is significantly different than the sound the band would go on to be known for. Because of this, if you’re a …
Country Comforts by artist Keith Urban
There’s nothing like a feel good country song. I love the song Country Comforts. I first heard it when Rod Stewart sang it and I loved that version. I wasn’t even beginning to love it until I heard Keith Urban’s version. He has a wonderful voice that fits perfectly …

OJ Da Juiceman hits the scene with his debut album —˜The Otha Side Of The Trap’, and proves that he is ready for mainstream success. This album is not for everybody, as a majority of the songs are “trap” songs, and a majority of the CD is about selling drugs …
Mono-Karelia (Opus 2)
Mono is a post-rock band from Japan that has amazed the fans of Mogwai Godspeed You! Black Emperor etc with their powerful mixture of guitar cascades and symphonic soundscape beauty. Karelia begins in the lowest possible tempo, but rises slowly to a ravaging sound, not the tiniest bit angry, …

Trinidad James - All Gold Everything

The Lumineers, 2012 Album by The Lumineers
I have never been a huge fan of folk music. I never was particularly interested in it even though of course I’m a huge music fan, and I do not mind any genres by themselves. But it was very rare that my heart would be drawn by itself to …
William Duvall (singer)

Sounds of the Earth: Waterfall - Sounds Of The Earth Series
Sounds of the Earth: Waterfall - Sounds Of The Earth Series is an audio CD that does not sound like much as it only offers the constant sound of waterfalls. However, I find that listening to the sound of falling water to be quite relaxing and pleasant. The recording …
Phillipia (Atlanta singer)
I have attended a few venues in Atlanta where Phillipia was performing.
I don’t know much about her except that she’s a 36 year old jazz singer who graces many stages around the Atlanta area (and I presume, beyond). She’s got a great set of pipes. But …
Pink Floyd - The Final Cut (1981)
Probably the weakest Pink Floyd album ever. Actually, it’s not even a Pink Floyd album, maybe only in name, because it’s written, produced and perfomed by Roger Waters. I see it as a the third CD to the Wall pretty much, since it has the same style, musically. Thematically …

The White Sripes - I’m Lonely (Song)

Tajai Power Movement CD
The Hieroglyphics crew is one of the tightest and most original Hip Hop crews on the planet. Their Rap flow is littered with witty one-liners, metaphors and and expanded vocabulary that goes beyond the street talk and cliche’ lyrics of typical Rap music. Consisiting of members A-Plus, Opio, Del …
The Rolling Stones - Gotta Get Away (Song)
Gotta Get Away is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Out Of Our Heads. The track opens up with a fairly slow rhythm where each of the instruments join in the track pretty quickly along with Jagger’s vocals as well. I wouldn’t say that …

Sara Bareilles - She Used to Be Mine (Song )
Sara Bareilles is such a lovely lady, and her voice is angelic. There’s something in her cold voice that is so soothing and ethereal. Like every time I listen to her voice, I almost always get shrills and goosebumps because it’s just so beautiful.
